About this Book

Print Excerpt


Subsequent chapters plumb the mindset of resilient children and the ten guideposts for parents to develop and reinforce this mindset. Chapter 12 looks beyond the home environment to the importance of parents and teachers working closely together so that the school setting can also reinforce resilience in youngsters. Raising resilient children must become a cornerstone in preparing ourselves and our children for the future.
